Please can you give me some information about
which are the main problems that working women
face and the measures that could be taken by
the state.

Working women face several problems. Historically
the problem was simply access: women weren't
permitted into certain fields. That's less of
a problem today. The larger problems are pay — both
how much women make comparable to men in the
same field, and how much women-dominated industries
make compared to male dominated industries.

Another
issue comes with the introduction of children
and who is responsible for childrearing and how
much employers are supportive of that. Harassment — both
blatant harassment and even more so subtle attempts
to undermined a woman's contribution. In terms
of laws....Family Medical Leave Act could be
extended to smaller businesses as well as include
paid leave. Also harassment laws could be expanded.
I hope that helps...that's a start.
